I certainly would not be critical of the quality of Jap products; however, I have not purchased any till I ABSOLUTELY had to because that particular product was not made here any- more. Two points to reflect on are---(1) Putting Americans out of work, AND (2) WE have to pay increased taxes for welfare, food stamps and other 'bene's' for those out of work. Take a ride in your Toyotas, give it some thought and pray for America.

I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass. And I'm all out of bubblegum. I do tend to fit in well wherever I go in person. The campfire is the most outside exposure I get. No TV, no newspaper.

Well Jigger, glad to see you came out of closet! I forgot about you not being patriotic Digger!!! You remind me of someone I used to watch on TV years ago, just can't think of that kids name, he had the same hair-doo as you have I believe. Oh yes, "Little Rascals" great show! Yes a striking resemblence I must say.
In case those besides Brickyard Jigger don't understand, the American automible company's keep their money or profits made, in this country. A so called Toy-yo yo or Honda-bon da ships all their profits out to JAPAN!!!

Brick: Are the 'American' brands made fully in Mexico? The ones I have purchased seem to indicate only some of the parts are imported. I also realize that some foreign label cars are made here. I would think tho, that the CEO's, top brass and majority of shareholders are paying taxes here, with at least some of the money filtering down to help the jobless and less fortunate. I don't think the same could be said in regard to the 'foreign' brands. If I can help at least one less fortunate American I will do so. It is funny however, that when I go to the local Salvation Army or food pantry with canned goods/donations that I see so many (well you know what kind of cars parked outside). I sometimes wonder 'what can they be thinking?'. That won't stop me from doing what I think is right. My platitudes will now cease.---Adios

The last Ford I owned had a Japanese transmission (made by Mazda), a Canadian-made engine, the wiring harness and every piece of electronics gear was made in Brazil, but it was "assembled" in Missouri so that some piece of dogshit like you would believe it was "made" in the U.S.A. Am I also to believe from your incredibly moronic "logic" that you believe "the CEO's, top brass and majority of shareholders are paying taxes here" and thereby subsidizing the rest of us poor unfortunates? What a f*cking dickhead.

Are the 'American' brands made fully in Mexico? I bought a brand new Chevroler Suburban in 2004 and it was 'Made in Mexico'.
Every day on this side of the ground is a win.

The Tsunami may have put a hold on the new M71 - we'll see soon. As to American made foreign cars and foreign made American cars: http://www.cars.com/go/advice/Story...amMade0710&referer=&aff=national

Brick!!! Lighten up bro! No need to turn a discussion/point of view thing into something where your getting tense. I checked my window stickers and my vehicles are 88% & 81%; so I guess I'll give you your due. Didn't mean to upset you or 'rattle your cage' over a 'point of view'. If someones point of view is 180 degrees out of sync with mine, that's OK, 'cause that's what America is all about(at least for the time being)'. Hope you think about 'lightening up', it's not worth getting a coronary over a bunch of relatively insignificant stuff. That's about it for me on this post---hope to read your shooting/ hunting expertise on another post. P.S.-Like I said above, 'I got your drift'; but, you might want to add a few more adjectives to your posts.

Brick-Jigger! Your the one on this forum that is an IDIOT, Dumb as little rocks pal. Let's start buying back the U.S.A. people!!!
Brick-Jigger is very limited in his vocabulary, mostly 4 letter words out in his posts, what one would expect out of a Ghetto raised kid with a black is beautiful face and corn curls in his hair, right Jigger-Digger. LOL

Hey BT, next he'll be telling you that shipping a gun via USPS is illegal ! LOL!
All my three MOPARS (97', 01 and 05') have Made in Mexico proudly displayed on the door.
Hmmm, maybe just the door was made in Mex-he-co by wannabewetbacks, the rest made in DEEEEtroit by real wetbacks ?
